Food insecurity exists when people live with hunger and fear starvation. It is defined as a situation that exists when people lack secure access to sufficient amounts of safe and nutritious food for normal growth and development and an active and healthy life. To achieve food security, sufficient and nutritious food needs to be available and accessible. It also needs to be properly utilized. Food availability, access and utilization together form the three pillars determining household food security.
